Hello All,
I'm new here and looking for advice.
When I hook up my OWB to the plate exchanger (not tube!) which is ultimately connected to the hot water heater. Will it thermosiphon effectively or will I need a pump? (to circulate the water heater side)
Some folks say it will thermosiphon OK and others say a pump is necessary.
I need max heat transfer, which I think would save on wood usage.
Logic steers me towards the pump.
Anyone...?
